The Museum of European and Mediterranean Civilizations (Mucem;[1] French: Musée des Civilisations de l'Europe et de la Méditerranée) is a national museum located in Marseille, France. It was inaugurated on 7 June 2013 as part of Marseille-Provence 2013, a year when Marseille was designated as the European Capital of Culture.[2] In 2015, it won the Council of Europe Museum Prize.[3]
Between 2013 and 2016, the Mucem welcomed 8.5 million visitors, including 2.2 million in its exhibition spaces.[4] The museum is therefore presented as a tool for the attractiveness of the territory of the metropolis of Aix-Marseille-Provence.[5]
